RESEARCH EXPERIENCES

Currently, Bacterial Diarrhea has involved in many various research project. Yet we are focusing on intestinal infection, antimicrobial resistant, and screening of Vibrio cholera in environment.

Intestinal InfectionDetection of E. coli pathogenic strain from diarrheagenic children in Surabaya. Frequency of diarrheagenic Eschericia coli among children in Surabaya. Modulation of 0-antigen chain length by the 1022 gene in Eschericia coli 0157 influences its sensitivities to serum complement. Those are the collaboration between Institute of Tropical Dissease and Dr. Soetomo Hospital in pediatric department. This project is funded by J-GR1D (Japan).

Antimicrobial ResistantCarbapenem resistant of Enterobacteriaceae in Indonesia. This research is collaboration between Institute of Tropical Disease and Dr. Soetomo Hospital in microbiology department. This research aims to screening the pattern of antibiotic resistant in UTI patient. This research is funded by J-GRID (Japan) Study on Microbial Resistant Enterobacteriaceae from chicken meat in Surabaya..

Screening Vibrio cholera from Environment. This project aims to screening Vibrio cholera from environment, such as marine product (shrimp, fish, and scallop).
